We all know swimming is a great form of exercise but do we actually know how to turn it into a workout? Is there more to just laps of strokes when exercising in the water? Of course, there is!

Try this workout below and see if it floats your boat:

WARM-UP:

• Start by 2 laps of walking with high knees, as you get to the end of each lap do 10x squats.
• Shoulder rotations: 10 forward each arm, 10 back each arm.

WORK-OUT:

1. Swim easy, with any stroke for 200m.
2. Grab a kickboard with one hand and perform one-arm freestyle with the freehand for 100m (alternating arms every 25m).
3. Move to your back, and do 2 laps of survival backstroke.
4. Grab a kick-board or hold torpedo on your back and kick for 100m.
5. Do 200m of backstroke aiming to do 50m under 40 seconds.

COOL-DOWN:

Pick any easy swimming movement for 200m and end with stretching against the pool wall.

With the winter season upon us, it becomes a little more difficult to get out of the house. However, swimming is a sport you can do all year round, and everyone can participate, especially when there’s a heated pool!

Here are our top 4 reasons why you and the family should hit up the pool for your next family outing:

1. Swimming is one of the few sports you can do throughout your lifetime
2. It does not require lots of special equipment and gear, all you really need is a swimsuit
3. It creates a reason to get together— a good way to socialise with your family
4. Did you know that swimming can boost your immune system? When cells in the body regularly get blood and oxygen, they function better

So what are you waiting for, grab your bathers and let’s go!
